Chapter 53: Building a Wolftaken Legion, Old Jack's Tragic End
Lu Yu was very surprised; how could Wolftaken appear here?
He was the only one in the entire isolated village!
Could it be his scent that attracted this group of hungry predators?
It was also possible they were passing by and accidentally discovered him.
If it were before, Lu Yu would have chosen to flee and hide in a safe place.
But now, Lu Yu decided to take the initiative.
With his strength, dealing with a dozen Wolftaken was more than enough.
Just right, he could also try out his new Spirit Ability.
And by the way, add some undead to the Myriad Souls Banner.
"Spatial Head Spirit Bone Ability, Mirror Space!"
A white light emanated from Lu Yu's forehead.
The next moment…
The surrounding Void Realm rippled like water.
Lu Yu's figure moved through the Mirror Space like Gui Mei.
The Wolftaken were stunned by this bizarre scene, standing frozen in place.
They had no idea where Lu Yu was.
"Roar…"
A shrill scream echoed among the Wolftaken.
One Wolftaken had its chest pierced by Lu Yu's Qilin Right Arm, its heart brutally crushed.
Lu Yu held the Myriad Souls Banner in his left hand, smoothly collecting the other party's divine soul.
All of this was completed in the blink of an eye.
By the time the other Wolftaken wanted revenge, Lu Yu's figure had already vanished.
Lu Yu immediately launched another attack!
He didn't want to waste too much time.
One by one, the Wolftaken fell.
Fear spread among the remaining Wolftaken.
In their eyes, Lu Yu was a demon.
Killing people and collecting their souls.
And appearing and disappearing like a ghost, completely un-targetable.
No matter how sensitive their sense of smell, or how fast they were.
They couldn't compare to Lu Yu, who could traverse the Void Realm.
Not long after…
All the Wolftaken were dead.
Lu Yu's Myriad Souls Banner had gained many new souls.
"If there are any more passing by in the future, they will all stay."
A smile curled at Lu Yu's lips.
He didn't mind if more Wolftaken came.
These were good Materials for filling the Myriad Souls Banner.
Wolftaken are powerful!
Five hundred Wolftaken could equal a ten-thousand-man army.
Once, a ten-thousand-man legion of the Heaven Dou Empire was completely wiped out by five hundred Wolftaken.
If Lu Yu could refine thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of Wolftaken.
Then he alone would be equivalent to a vast army.
"Perhaps I should try something else!"
Lu Yu waved the Myriad Souls Banner, releasing a Wolftaken.
Then he used a Clone to control the Wolftaken's consciousness.
This was equivalent to one of his Clones!
Lu Yu could use this Clone to cause some trouble outside.
Saint Spirit Village…
Old Jack looked up at the village entrance sign with a contented expression.
The thought of Tang San becoming a Divinity, and the village's name being changed to divine soul Village, made Old Jack excited.
A Divinity had emerged from the village.
This was a great honor.
This would become a legendary tale in their village from now on.
Old Jack's thoughts were wildly fantasizing.
Suddenly, a figure gradually appeared in his line of sight.
Old Jack focused his gaze.
He quickly recognized this as a Spirit Master from Spirit Hall.
Moreover, the other party was an old acquaintance, Su Yuntao, who had once come to the village to preside over Spirit Awakening for the children.
"Spirit Master, why have you come?"
"It's not time for Spirit Awakening this year yet?"
Old Jack respectfully stepped forward, his tone full of doubt.
As Su Yuntao arrived, many villagers were attracted.
Every year, when the Spirit Hall Spirit Master graced them with his presence, it was the liveliest day.
After all, Spirit Masters were inherently nobler than ordinary people.
Su Yuntao gazed at Old Jack, his face filled with indifference.
"From today onwards, Spirit Hall will no longer preside over Spirit Awakening for anyone in Saint Spirit Village."
"Furthermore, any villager of Saint Spirit Village, even if they become a Spirit Master, will forever be unable to enjoy Spirit Hall's Spirit Master subsidies."
Su Yuntao, carrying Spirit Hall's decree, coldly declared.
He hadn't expected that he had personally presided over the Spirit Awakening for Tang San, this evil brat.
Su Yuntao was a loyal member of Spirit Hall.
He could become a Spirit Master and Cultivate to this day, all thanks to Spirit Hall's support.
Tang San was an enemy of Spirit Hall, wanting to destroy Spirit Hall.
Su Yuntao naturally regarded him as an enemy.
He regretted not paying enough attention to Tang San back then.
He hadn't reported the other party's situation to Spirit Hall.
Otherwise, Spirit Hall might have been able to nip this evil brat in the bud earlier.
Tang San had been deceiving people since childhood.
He clearly had twin spirits, yet he concealed it from him.
He came with sincerity, freely Awakening Spirits for commoners.
But what he got in return was this result!
"What?!"
"Spirit Hall will no longer help Saint Spirit Village, so our village's children will have no hope?"
Su Yuntao's words immediately caused a violent uproar.
Every villager's face showed panic.
They didn't care whether Tang San could become a Divinity.
After all, even if the other party became a Divinity, it had nothing to do with them.
They only cared about immediate benefits.
If there was no Spirit Hall, Saint Spirit Village would never produce another Spirit Master.
What would happen to children aged six and above?
Old Jack's face changed drastically.
He had originally hoped that next year, a few more talented children would emerge, become Spirit Masters, and bring glory and pride to Saint Spirit Village.
As the village chief, the honor of the village was his greatest responsibility.
But now, Spirit Hall would no longer provide assistance to Saint Spirit Village.
This instantly made Old Jack panic.
"Spirit Master, absolutely not!"
"If you have any grievances, you can direct them at me alone, please don't implicate the other people of Saint Spirit Village."
Old Jack pleaded humbly.
Su Yuntao snorted coldly and turned to leave.
No matter how much Old Jack pleaded, this matter would not change.
As you sow, so shall you reap.
The future of Saint Spirit Village was ruined in Old Jack's hands.
Watching Su Yuntao's resolute departing back.
The villagers of Saint Spirit Village all blamed their anger on Old Jack.
"Old Jack, look what you've done!"
"Our village's children can no longer become Spirit Masters because of you."
"It's all your fault for helping Tang San back then."
"Because of an outsider, you ruined the Foundation of our entire village."
Although Old Jack was usually highly respected in Saint Spirit Village and had helped many people.
But human nature is ugly!
Now that everyone knew Spirit Hall would no longer provide assistance to Saint Spirit Village, they all wished they could tear Old Jack apart.
Some hot-tempered villagers even punched and kicked Old Jack.
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault."
"My child will be six next year!"
"He was supposed to become a Spirit Master, but you ruined his future."
"Without Spirit Hall, our children will forever be stuck in the mountains."
In the shadows, a Spirit Beast with intelligence flashed a hint of mockery in its eyes.
"It seems I don't need to act!"
"These humans are indeed all selfish!"
"For profit, they always like to kill each other."
"I will definitely report all of this truthfully to the Beast God when I return."
